The already under-funded and under-manned EPA gets drafted to go to work in Iraq. In fact, according to the the full email sent yesterday to "all EPA Employees", it looks as if all Government agencies are now being encouraged to send their employees to do Iraq's work. Good thing everything is already taken care of here in "the homeland."

MEMORANDUM
SUBJECT: Support for the Reconstruction of Iraq
FROM: Luis A. Luna, Assistant Administrator
for Administration and Resources Management
TO: All EPA Employees

The United States is currently supporting the Iraqi people as they build new essential services, their economy, and other government and political institutions. The President has called upon all Federal departments and agencies to support the rebuilding of Iraq through details of Federal employees to the Department of State's Iraq reconstruction Management Office (IRMO).
...
The Environmental Protection Agency supports the President's request for detailees and looks forward to doing our part to help in the reconstruction of Iraq.

JESUS! if bush-cheney-rice-rummy-et-al are so all-fired set on reconfuckingstructing the god-awful MESS they created by bombing the SHIT out of Iraq why don't THEY just FUCKING GO themselves already?! God knows they're not doing us any damn good over here!

Bu$hco pretends to do something to help fix the mess they have made in Iraq. Their pretence includes several interchangable excuses d'jour. The one they used today was that "reconstruction efforts are being hampered by the violence". Translated it means we are not willing to spend any money on the Iraqis, its all needed by Halliburton, Kellogg Brown and Root, Carlyle, et.al.....while their stock soars and they stuff their pockets with US tax dollars, they are busy trying to figure out how to steal the oil there, Kinda hard to get serious about a bunch of brown people who are considered sub human to all Americans over there. So what if they only have electricity 3 or 4 hours per day. And so what if their homes are now a pile of rubble. And so what if they have no clean water. And who cares if their sewage runs into the streets. And cry us another river that your hospitals have all been destroyed and you're at the mercy of the US army for medical attention. And who cares if your children starve or have no education? And if you want a job it has to be as a soldier or police sucker, otherwise be one of the more than 50% of unemployed. God, we're doing a great job of bringing Iraqi freedom American style.

Some facts to go along with the rumors:
1. The events of 9/11 took place on a day and at the same time of day that hijacking and terror drills in the northeast (NY specifically) were taking place.
2. The London bombings took place as drills to deal with the exact kind of event were taking place.
3. Nuclear preparedness drills are to take place in the US in August of this year.

The training mentioned is at Charleston; silent preps are, however, taking place elsewhere. A Fort Worth facility, normally shut down, has lots of activity, lots of semis, heightening of the chain-link fence. Iodine has been being purchased in bulk (for radiation treatment?). It's speculated that several bombs will detonate in several medium-sized cities throughout the U.S.

In a recent issue of The American Conservative, intelligence analyst Philip Giraldi wrote:
"The Pentagon, acting under instructions from Vice President Dick Cheney's office, has tasked the United States Strategic Command (STRATCOM) with drawing up a contingency plan to be employed in response to another 9/11-type terrorist attack on the United States. The plan includes a large-scale air assault on Iran employing both conventional and tactical nuclear weapons. Within Iran there are more than 450 major strategic targets, including numerous suspected nuclear-weapons-program development sites. Many of the targets are hardened or are deep underground and could not be taken out by conventional weapons, hence the nuclear option. As in the case of Iraq, the response is not conditional on Iran actually being involved in the act of terrorism directed against the United States. Several senior Air Force officers involved in the planning are reportedly appalled at the implications of what they are doing  that Iran is being set up for an unprovoked nuclear attack  but no one is prepared to damage his career by posing any objections."

This is not on the web, but in print. This is very disturbing. It sounds like Cheney is counting on something like 9/11 happening again, so he can justify nuking Iran. I think the whistle needs to be blown on this. This might have some relationship to the recent spate of bombings too.

Perhaps the growing exposure about this may dampen their plans. More and more people are concluding that Bush deliberately orchestrated/allowed the 9.11 attacks - imagine what things would be like if people were suspicious BEFORE the attacks happened.

I heard about this first from Peg C, and glad to see that others are following up.

#25, I hope you are correct about growing exposure. However, I would guess that it is a fraction of 0.01% of the general population who have even started to come to grips with the Bush/ 9-11 attack connection, even though there's plenty of evidence available on the internet to support this view.

Do you have any ideas about how to make sure that there is, indeed, growing exposure about the possibility of August events?

The only high-profile person that immediately comes to mind as a contact is Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney. She has recently been a presenter of "The 9/11 Commission Report One Year Later: A Citizens Response  Did They Get It Right?"

Her web page is here. Unfortunately, that doesn't give an email contact address.

A friend showed me the email that everyone at the EPA got regarding that. And he was alarmed enough about it show me. This is a Repug! And he knows my political leanings almost as well as I do. (I lean left, honest.) At first I thought I was just being paranoid, but now I'm a little frightened. :O

Sorry, that should have read, "And he was alarmed enough about it to show it to me."
I was so astounded to read this story here that I forgot how to type in English.
Honestly, I held in my hands a printout of this email. I thought I was just being paranoid. Holy s**t!!!

Peg C,
I hope you're right. If that is all they're up to I think we can straighten that out. But if they're still planning on a "permanent presence"... I'm NOT feelin' good about this at all. :confused:

On August 6 2005, the 40th anniversary of the signing of the Voting Rights Act, the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition will hold a march and rally Atlanta, Georgia to commemorate the signing of the Act and to call attention to the threats facing minorities and the poor as key provisions of the Act come up for renewal in 2007. **More...**

Warpspasm (#20), the reason that August 6 was designated a possible terrorist attack date was because it is the Hiroshima anniversary. Other possible dates were suggested in the WorldNetDaily article, too.
